Job 23:3-7
If only I knew how to find Him, so that I could go to His throne.I would plead my case before Him and fill my mouth with arguments.I would learn how He would answer me; and understand what He would say to me.Would He prosecute me forcefully? No, He will certainly pay attention to me.Then an upright man could reason with Him, and I would escape from my Judge forever.

Zechariah 3:1-10
Then he showed me Joshua the high priest standing before the Angel of the Lord, with Satan standing at his right side to accuse him.The Lord said to Satan:“ The Lord rebuke you, Satan! May the Lord who has chosen Jerusalem rebuke you! Isn’t this man a burning stick snatched from the fire?”Now Joshua was dressed with filthy clothes as he stood before the Angel.So the Angel of the Lord spoke to those standing before Him,“ Take off his filthy clothes!” Then He said to him,“ See, I have removed your guilt from you, and I will clothe you with splendid robes.”Then I said,“ Let them put a clean turban on his head.” So a clean turban was placed on his head, and they clothed him in garments while the Angel of the Lord was standing nearby.Then the Angel of the Lord charged Joshua:“ This is what the Lord of Hosts says: If you walk in My ways and keep My instructions, you will both rule My house and take care of My courts; I will also grant you access among these who are standing here.“ Listen, Joshua the high priest, you and your colleagues sitting before you; indeed, these men are a sign that I am about to bring My servant, the Branch.Notice the stone I have set before Joshua; on that one stone are seven eyes. I will engrave an inscription on it”— this is the declaration of the Lord of Hosts—“ and I will take away the guilt of this land in a single day.On that day, each of you will invite his neighbor to sit under his vine and fig tree.” This is the declaration of the Lord of Hosts.
